What are the types of nuts?

Jiaxing Xinhan Technology Co., Ltd. is a Chinese manufacturer specializing in the production of various types of machine screws, bolts and nuts. So what are the types of nuts we produce?

The variety of nuts is very rich, including the following common types:

Hexagonal head nut: The shape is hexagonal, mainly used in conjunction with bolts and screws to connect fasteners.

Square nut: square shape, also known as square nut or square nut. Square nut is a kind of welding nut, which melts the metal at high temperature and welds it between two products to tighten. Widely used in road traffic, home building materials and other industries

Flange nut: also known as padded nut or flower tooth nut, its size and specification are the same as hexagonal nuts, but the gasket and nut are integrated, with non-slip tooth pattern, increasing the surface area of contact with the workpiece, and stronger anti-loosening performance. Mainly used to connect two pipes or pipes and equipment to ensure the firmness and sealing of the connection

Nylon nut: made of nylon, with excellent insulation properties, non-magnetic, heat insulation, light weight, high temperature resistance, high strength, corrosion resistance, etc. Commonly used in electroplating industry and communication industry, does not produce eddy current and other signal interference, suitable for use in strong acid and alkali environments

Fastening nut: A single-buckle elastic locking nut, often used as a sub-nut in a double-nut locking structure. Because of its light weight, it is suitable for occasions where weight reduction is required

Self-locking cap nut: twisted threads in the hexagonal area form a tight friction fit to prevent the nut from loosening due to vibration

Barrel nuts: also known as cross screws or screw nuts, commonly used in aerospace and furniture. Because of its lightweight structure, it is often used in occasions where weight reduction is required

Furniture Cross Pin Barrel Nut: Designed in a cylindrical shape, specifically for bolts in furniture, connecting two pieces of wood

Cage nut: Consists of square nuts in spring steel cages, often used in occasions where they need to be fixed in holes. Designed with extrusion and release functions, it can be installed without tools

Clamp nuts: also known as sheet metal nuts or quick nuts, specially designed to clamp onto sheet metal, commonly found in cage nut types

These nuts each have their own specific application scenarios and advantages, making them suitable for use in various industrial and mechanical equipment.
